Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Zhang Yimou, 72, and his partner had split up. Is the director best known for The Great Wall, House of Flying Daggers or Raise the Red Lantern really single again?

UPDATE 19/04/2024 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Zhang spotted alone

A fan spotted Zhang Yimou walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of April 17, 2024. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Yimou back on the market?

A rep for Zhang Yimou was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Thursday (April 18), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Yimou’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

Based on the facts (Zhang spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
